HW Humphrey and Son reports that the EA Projects upgrade has given the company ‘many advantages’
EA Projects, which will be exhibiting at next month’s FPS EXPO, has installed new tanker loading and tank gauging systems for Porthmadog-based distributor HW Humphrey and Son.
“The installation of the EA Projects TAS has given us many advantages that we didn’t have before,” said Arwel Evans.
“This includes the automatic recording of all meter movements at the site including all our bunker sales. Being able to have all this information in one central system is a huge benefit for us and we’re very pleased with the system.”
The project included a major overhaul of the tank gauging systems on the site which has two separate tank farms. EAP supplied and installed new Hectronic Optilevel gauges to monitor product level, temperature and water level across 14 tanks which are achieving measurement accuracy of +/- 1mm .
An integrated bunkering system for refuelling the Humphreys fleet was also supplied which allows the distributor to reconcile all meter movements against physical stock levels and also provides detailed reporting on deliveries taken by third parties.
Additionally the iSupervisor TAS was supplied to control tanker loading via 4 arm bottom loading skid fitted with Isoil Vega II batch controllers which are being used to load the tankers of Humphries Oils and a third party. These loads are all based on loading plans managed by the system that may be controlled by the iSupervisor web interface either on or off site.
